EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

The bottom line for me in this matter is that the license agreement in
question doesn't have the proper legal language (whether admissible in court
or not) to prevent users from translating the free sample library. It's that
simple. It's obvious by their post, they do not want it to be translated.
But, despite the claim, I don't think the language bars that. Don't be
surprised if you see a change in their future agreements. If they do change
it, they'll have to trust the universe revolves around them and no one will
"misuse" their free samples.  So I agree, a license is whatever the vender
wants it to be, and there's nothing the user can do about it. Beyond that,
it must be tested in court. I think they are wrong about their own
interpretation of their license.

In the meantime, I think I'll just delete their samples and never buy a
product from them from here on out. I'm disappointed they didn't reconsider
their position on this. It's obvious by now the moral majority has put in
their two cents on the matter. They don't seem to care, so that's enough for
me.

EP, at least has the balls to take a position on this. He is often
conservative, but I find my self drawing the conclusion that he is very fair
in his distribution of work. I really appreciate the response to my due
credit response. I got a big hoot out of the Enigma thing. Thanks, EP!
